If you like the ads in GVA airport wait until you check out the shops in departurtes. The have their own Rolex and Omega stores plus concessions for pretty much every other watch maker known to man!

Also, if you're wandering around town just as a piece of ancilliary info on top of what others have said, check out the antique/2nd hand shops in the old town and on rue du Generale dufour and the rue du theatre.

Happy hunting!!

As promised, attached is a picture from my Geneva adventure.....Thanks again for all the advice.

Unfortunately, I made it to downtown around 8 P.M., so Bucherer was in full lock down mode! ....Looks like a big store, though, and I hope to make it back some day to see the selection. Not sure if there are many good deals to be had, though, with the AD being in the heart of the fashionable shopping district and overlooking Lake Geneva.

Strolling through downtown Geneva during normal business hours must be murder on the bank account....I have to say, though, that, after hours, the place is pretty dead....

Aw, that's disappointing.
I took these back in Feb in Munich. Love these ADs who will put prices out in open.

Nice pix! Thanks for posting. Seeing all those watches in the window helps me relate better to what my 4-year old must be feeling when he walks in front of a candy store.
